>From: Christopher Jeris <cjeris@...> (I emailed Doepfer a while ago to ask them how wide was a Eurorack >horizontal unit, and they said 5.08mm = 0.2". Was the European standard >really designed around inches and feet too ??) yep, it's the same standard originally designed for military / telecommunications - it's probably an early NATO protocol. we didn't decimalise until the early seventies, we still work in both systems - the trick is not to get them mixed up ;-) by the way, on the 50% discount front, if i've started with my own personal system (can't wait) but would like to get a couple of the processing modules for the studio where i work - does this count as an introduction..? cheers paul
